Below, please create a numbered list of all the materials that you will need to create your calorimeter. Keep in mind that the money tree that the science department planted last year hasn't bloomed yet, so if you ask for some titanium or a kilogram of plutonium, it's probably not going to happen.
Monsieur Syracuse,
Upon planning this lab, we have come to realize that we have the need for the following items, and please get them without delay:
1)Flat bottom flask thingy
2)Small beaker of water
3)Aluminum foil
4)Water
5)Peanuts
6)Paperclip
7)Clamp
8)PENCIL
9)LabPro
10)Temperature probe
11)Calorimeter ingredients
12)Mathes
13)Graduated cylinder
14)Sour Patch Kids
15)Sour Skittles
16)Goobers
17)Popcorn
18)Beanbag chairs
19)Movies
20)Portable DVD Player
21)Pillows
22)All day pass to get out of class
23)Money
24)3 fancy cars
25)Platypus
26)Llama
27)Koala
28)100 averages in bio

Sincerely,
Travis, Naomi, Bethany, Kerri
p.s. thank you, and we hope this isn't too much to ask of you. p.p.s Merci Beaucoup!
Below, please report your results so that we can share them with the rest of the class. Include a description (or better yet...a picture!) of your design, the values you obtained, your percent error, and some breif conclusions.
Temperature Change for the 3 trials
1.) 14.4 degrees celsius
2.) 22.4 degrees celsius
3.) 18.7 degrees celsius
Energy in Joules for the 3 trials
1.) 1205.7984 J
2.) 1885.064832 J
3.) 1573.692516 J
Joules per gram for each of the 3 trials
1.) 803.8656 J/g
2.) 1713.695302 J/g
3.) 874.27362 J/g
Average Joules per gram
1130.611507 J/g
% error= your value-accepted value/acceped value x100
% error= 1130.611507 - 23908.57/ 23908.57 x100
% error= 22777.95849/ 23908.57 x100
% error= 952711036 x100
% error= 95.2711036
We were so far off because of human error, we lost some heat energy, and we didnt get to burn all of the peanuts because the fire kept going out, disabling us from getting an accurate energy measurement.
